To the Lord

For all that I have done to you,you continue to be there at my side for all that I have 
put you through you still continue to be at my side I have lied,I have cheated,I 
have even stolen from you and yet you still continue to be at my side,I have played 
with your heart I have put you down in every way,I won't even pickup your book to 
read let alone come to your house,and yet you continue to put out a hand and be 
by my side,I have told you on and on I am committed to my other (sin)and yet 
when I fall you continue to be at my side,to help raise me from the floor to help 
dust me off you continue to be at my side,for all the praise I give unto him you 
continue to be at my side,when I cry in the dark you shine a light to say you are by 
my side,I know no man who would do so much and still be by my side,but no 
matter what you continue to embrace me as you stand by my side.
